Mothers day reminds me of this article I've found before. It just sorts of clicked within me that although I've written about it before, it is still as applicable today as it was yesterday. And not only for me, either.
My wife, my mom, my mother-in-law, and Sandra, my sister-in-law are all coffee beans. Ever since I met my wife, I've worked at becoming a better person. I've toned down my temper. Avoided fights that can be avoided. Become a better dad to my kids. Learned how to resolve difficult situations. Opened up myself to better communicate with the people around me.
From my mom, I got perseverance and endless optimism as well as short term memory loss. That short term memory loss is definitely essential to leading a stress free life. Ensuring I keep smiling despite the stress and tension life brings me.
From my mother-in-law, I got hope and forgiveness. That these qualities, when combined with short term memory loss, makes life even better.
My sister-in-law taught me to have fun. Life without fun is nothing. Especially if you focus too much on the future that you forget the present.
My dearest wife. Mama. Mommy. Sandra. You are all the coffee beans I need and want! ! HAPPY MOTHE! RS DAY!!!
